Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3107:
-----------------------------------------
asterisk.pdf is the user file. helloworld.pdf is mine, it was created with the
HelloWorldTTF example, and these parameters:
{code}
args = new String[]{"helloworld.pdf",
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
!\"#$%&'()***+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@",
"C:/windows/fonts/arial.ttf"};
{code}
There are three "*" after the "()". These are shown as ' in Adobe Reader.

> I have an odd issue with the asterisk character not displaying properly in
> Adobe Reader (XI or DC)
> The "*" is displayed on the document as a hollow box, all other characters
> seem to be ok.
> I thought it was an issue with my code, so I gave it a try in the
> HelloWorldTTF.java example, and got the same results...with various different
> TTF fonts as well.
> Attached is the test.pdf output file, using the LiberationSans-Regular.ttf
> font and input message "1*1".
> It was created using a 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT that I built earlier this morning, but
> I also had the same results using the RC1 binaries.
